AHRQ Super Intelligence for Healthcare Improvement Initiative

AHRQ Super Intelligence for Healthcare Improvement Initiative is sponsored by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). This initiative aims to equip AHRQ with "super intelligence" to answer consequential questions.

Specifically, a working AI system and operating model would be developed to enable AHRQ to better evaluate medical evidence and improve use of its existing cost, utilization, and quality databases.
